On December 29 (Tuesday), "Mitsukoshi no Ninth" was performed at the main hall of the main building of Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi Main Store, Nihonbashi Muromachi 1-chome.
This year's 31st annual event is the year-end event.
The performance time was from 12:30 for the first time and from 14:30 for the second time.
In about 30 minutes each time, I heard the first one from the atrium on the fifth floor.
Before the performance began, there were crowds on the railings of the atrium on each floor.
Approximately 200 "Taito Ward Choir" () and soprano, alto, tenor and bus soloists performed "Beethoven Symphony No. 9, 4th Movement" with piano accompaniment.
"Song of Joy" echoed in the main building of Mitsukoshi
There are various theories about the origins of the year-end "Ninth" established in Japan, but when you hear "Ninth" "Song of Joy", I feel that this year will end.
At Nihonbashi, I was able to enjoy the year-end tradition.
